Trustees approve reorganization, budget
By TIM TAYLOR Contributing Editor
The Board of Trustees approved a major administrative reorganization and a new budget at its regular meeting yesterday.
The board also elected J. Robert Fluor to succeed the late Kenneth T. Norris as its chairman.
John E. Cantelon. vice-provost, will be elevated to the newly created post of vice-president for undergraduate studies. Hubbard said that this appointment is the result of a long and exhaustive look at the administrative apparatus of the College of Letters. Arts and Sciences and is in line with the board’s often-stated concern for LAS.
Three divisional deans will serve under Cantelon in the new undergraduate organization. David Malone, chairman of the Comparative Literature Program, will be humanities dean; Donald J. Lewis, chairman ofthe Psychology Department, will be social sciences dean. Sciences dean will be William G. Spitzer, chairman ofthe Physics Department.
Zohrab A. Kaprielian, vice-president for academic planning and research, will now have the title vice-president for academic administration and research President John Hubbard said yesterday after the meeting that the title change is to better reflect the kinds of projects Kaprielian is already undertaking.
The third major personnel change approved by the board was the creation of a new post, the vice-president for allied health sciences. The Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy will be at the core of the new group, which will also include elements of gerontology, social work, biomedical engineering, communicative disorders, occupational therapy and physical therapy.
“In the foreseeable future, tremendous attention is going to be given to the delivery of health care,” Hubbard said. “It is a complex problem and has enormous fiscal implications for this university.”
Hubbard said a search committee will be formed to find a man to fill the post. “We need a man who is expert in the
health field who is also a proven administrator.
Hubbard said he hopes a suitable candidate will be found by July 1, when all ofthe board’s new appointments will take effect.
The board also announced that Elton D. Phillips, vice-president for business affairs, will retire, and Anthony D. Lazzaro, the associate vice-president for business affairs, will be moved up.
The board accepted President Hubbard’s decision to dismiss Paul A. Bloland as vice-president for student affairs, paving the way for a search committee to be formed.
The other major action taken by the board yesterday was to approve the university’s $104 million budget for fiscal 1972-73.
This is the first time that the budget has topped $100 million. Last year’s budget was $91.7 million. This budget is balanced, as all others in the past have been.
The budget includes $519,000 in faculty and staff salary increases, which will be distributed on a selective merit basis. There was no attempt to make an across-the-board increase or cost-of-living adjustment, Hubbard said, because the university “simply does not have the resources this year.”
The budget projects a decrease of 3.7% in the number of units, which is equivalent to about 500 fewer students. This year’s budget had projected increases which did not materialize, forcing cuts in the current budget. The new budget, Hubbard said, “is more conservative in order to reduce the possibility of that happening again.”
Further details on the new budget will be available later.
The board paid tribute to its former chairman by approving a resolution from the School of Engineering to create the Kenneth T. Norris chair in engineering.
The next regular meeting of the board will be the first Wednesday of June.

Hubbard denies charge of one-sided VP choice
By MIKE REVZIN Staff Writer
A charge that the university acted unilaterally in selecting John Cantelon as the new vice president for undergraduate studies was refuted Wednesday by President John Hubbard.
Five students, including three ASSC Executive Council officers, sent an open leeter to the university community yesterday claiming students had been left out of the process of selecting the person to fill the new vice presidential post.
Kent Clemence, ASSC president; Lee Blackman and Joel
Rosenzweig, ASSC vice presidents; and Mark Spitzer and Dan Smith said in the letter, “... the entire University Community had the right, responsibility and obligation to partake in the search for someone to fill the post. Specifically, students should have been involved in the selection of a top level administrator whose primary task will be coordination of undergraduate studies.”
Hubbard, however, replied to the charge by saying that Cantelon had been selected by a committee, which included (Continued on page 2)

Trustees get new head
J. Robert Fluor, a USC trustee since 1962, was elected chairman ofthe board at the trustees’ meeting yesterday. He succeeds Kenneth T. Norris, who died March 24.
Fluor, 50, has served as chairman of both the development and alumni affairs committees ofthe board, and was, until his election, one of the board’s two vice-chairmen.
“I was very honored when I was first elected to the board,” Fluor said, “and I am doubly honored now. One of the greatest advantages of being on the board during the ‘60s was to see the progress made by USC. I hope to see that kind of progress continued.”
In response to questions regarding student representation on the board, Fluor said that students already have a voice on committees of the board and that student views are well represented and considered. He said that both of his immediate predecessors. Justin Dart and Norris, had regular meetings with student leaders and that he would
continue to do so.
In regard to actual board representation for students, he said he would like to study the experience of other universities v. ith students on trustee boards. “We don’t have a deaf ear to it, but the board is and has been solidified on this matter.” he said.
Fluor is chairman and chief executive officer of the Fluor Corporation, a company founded by his grandfather which specializes in services to natural resource industries.
The firm engineers and builds oil refineries and chemical plants throughout the world, and also has been involved in offshore drilling and contruction of mining equipment.
“I am just so happy that we have a man of Mr. Fluor’s stature, experience and willingness, to take over,” President Hubbard said yesterday after the trustees’ meeting.
Fluor, his father and his two sons all attended USC.
Liberal abortion laws advocate will speak in Hancock at noon
Dr. Boyd Cooper, advocate of liberal abortion laws and also an obstetrician-gynecologist, will speak today at noon in Hancock Auditorium.
In his book, “Sex Without Tears,” Cooper uses case histories from his files to tackle such problems as the VD epidemic, contraception, unwanted pregnancies, adoption, the single mother, early teenage sex relations, later-life sex problems, sequential polygamy and changing marital sex standards.
Cooper is currently conducting a nationwide tour to implement legislative reform in abortion laws.
He strongly believes in abortion upon request and has performed over 3,000 legal abortions. He feels also that the skyrocketing cost of abortions is absurd and advocates legislation to permit services to be performed in doctor’s offices by trained physicians.
The concept of illegitimacy can be abolished, Cooper says.
He answers the question as to whether a doctor kills when he aborts a fetus by saying that religious convictions should not influence the law of the land, and the law does not consider a fetus a legal entity.
Cooper is concerned about the national VD epidemic and con-
trasts it with the near elimination of the disease in the Chinese People’s Republic.
Public health programs concerning VD are ineffectual says Cooper. “There is too much red tape, names must be reported, and innocent people become the
victims of the vindictive.” Cooper graduated from USC Medical School and is now chair-man of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital.
Five candidates quit
Jim Lacy, the incumbent sophomore representative to the ASSC Executive Council, was inadvertently omitted from the list of ASSC presidential candidates in Wednesday’s Daily Trojan.
The presidential race ranks closed Wednesday for the second time since filing ended Tuesday. Two more candidates withdrew shortly after the ballots for next Wednesday’s primary elections were sent to the printers.
Lee Blackman, vice-president of academic affairs, and Jack Kellerman announced that they would not seek the presidency. Tuesday, Jim Korsen, independent students representative, left the race just after filing closed.
Lacy, Bruce Mitchell, Melvin Murphy and Herbert Wills are the only four candidates, of the original seven, still running for president.
Stan Olson dropped out of the
vice-president of programs race, leaving Jack McNamara and Michael Lance Trope.
Bryan Arakelian, MHA vice-president, announced he would not seek the Associated Men Students presidency, leaving Craig Clemence, independent students representative, as the only contender for the office.
The Elections Commission will hear an appeal today from Jamshid Tadjiki, the incumbent foreign students representative, who has filed to run in the spring elections. There has been controversy all semester over Tad-jiki’s status as a foreign student, and the commission may declare him ineligible to run for that office.
Songfest clinic
A mandatory Songfest directors clinic will be held today at 3:30 p.m. in the Student Activities Center. Information on lighting and sets will be discussed.
